Gave up on this life, gave up all my time; to
Opening the doors, telling you I'm fine;
Oh, you believed me? Nothing's fine when you're
Dying; So open the blinds, let the light shine;
Beyond what you see, beyond what I missed;
Years of battling, it's down to this;
Everyone's dying, just hear my one final wish,
For eternity I'm safe from myself, no more hiding;
Or for once in my life, I'm free from trying;
Resenting yourself for what I have done,
Even though the blame is focused on only one;
Very often people think "I could have changed",
Even though no difference that would've made;
Resent me,
and only me,
in this,
for that,
for sure,
is my one dying wish.

An acrostic, this was actually a suicide note...

It was a suicide note? I'm glad you're still alive. Trust me, I have been there.
